Studies Toward the M.A. Degree
The M.A. Program is designed to further the students' general knowledge in Sociology and Anthropology, while also enabling them to focus on a specific specialty. The program aims to train independent researchers, as well as to prepare graduates for professional careers in a variety of applied fields. The M.A. Program offers specializations in: Social Psychology; Organizational Consulting; Organizational Sociology; and Society & Culture.

Students select one of two tracks:
Track A (with thesis). This track is a prerequisite for Ph.D. studies. Sixteen course credits are required.
Track B (without thesis). This track is designed for those who wish to specialize in their field, but who do not wish to receive training as independent researchers. Eighteen course credits are required.
